Is 500mg of flagyl twice a day and 100mg twice a day of doxycycline enough to treat pid? gyno doesnt think i have it but i feel like i do from my embedded iud that was removed a few months ago. culture showed bv but i have swollen tubes on ultrasoun?

This is the standard recommended treatment for PID using oral antibiotics and usually is effective. An embedded IUD is not a common cause of PID, but ultrasound showing "swollen" Fallopian tubes is consistent with PID. Good luck.
